Ukraine crisis: Russia Today TV channel faces 15 Ofcom investigations

Yahoo News

UK media regulator Ofcom has launched 15 investigations into Russian state-backed news channel RT's coverage of the conflict in Ukraine.

The watchdog will examine whether the channel, formerly known as Russia Today, has broken impartiality rules.

Last week, the government asked Ofcom to review RT's UK broadcasts, saying it "is demonstrably part of Russia's global disinformation campaign".

Ofcom has the power to revoke broadcast licences.
